  1. Can you not go to s plumbers merchants and ask for some 60mm solvent weld? May possibly be grey in colour [emoji848]
  2. Just shoves in to your t-piece, usually quite snug but if your not totally happy then put a smear of silicon on pipe and inside of fitting, [emoji106]
  3. Something like this? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F172002887061
  4. I take it it is for blown hot air then? Can you not just use the convoluted heating / exhaust pipe stuff that they use in caravans / motorhomes etc?
  5. Can you post a pic to highlight your scenario?
  6. Your a tad far away, could of possibly recommended someone but theyre in lancashire.
  7. Theres a thread titled “arbtalkers arbtrucks” Mr Mark Wileman is currently doing his single cab ranger, theres a few pics on there aswell, or just PM him. Be sure to ask him about towbar heights tho, they can cause issues [emoji106]
  8. I’m not climbing trees or owt like you guys, but when we get frozen trailer brakes stuck on up the yard, or an odd fuel filter thats waxed up and needs changing which means your out jacking a cab up to get to em etc, i double up on nitrile gloves which obviously keep your hands dry, but warm too cos your two’s up [emoji6] then i wear a pair of task appropriate gloves over the top. One thing i have found though is to not constrict my wrists too much, i.e avoid wearing elasticated wrist banded gloves, i find it cuts my circulation and i end up with tingling achy fingers and wrists and it can also give me achy elbows too.
  9. Christ eggs!... checking my profile??? Thats like..... stalker ish???..... thats chuffing Vesp territory! [emoji15][emoji33][emoji30][emoji37]
  10. I’ll help anyone i can if i can..... thats a given!!! Try do my over or take the piss.... then thats a different story!!! Open house though genuinely anyone who needs it. [emoji106]
  11. Uneven load?...... tow hitch too high? ???
  12. Anything for you yolky [emoji6] you just make sure you use the knock three times gag and we’ll sort it...... no bother at all! I’m just off to trim my ass hairs then i dont offend for the 2nd hakf of the night.... [emoji6][emoji39]
  13. Your knocking on the door then eh! [emoji6] feeling cold again tonight here, time will tell i guess, but i rekon its gona be a cold one [emoji106]
  14. ??????......... Who???...... Me??? [emoji51]
  15. Thats the long and short of it.... emissions! Takes me ages to get a good ash bed after i’ve given fire a good clean out. So obviously burns very clean / efficiently, but also kills an extra handful of logs each night [emoji6][emoji30] or am i just being tight [emoji39]
  16. Clitheroe, a bit further south than you, your practically on the northern tip of pennines there [emoji106] it’ll be with us in next day or so no doubt! [emoji39]
  17. Cheers MATE!!! [emoji15][emoji109]
  18. Not sure on your brand but if its manufactured in the last couple of years then it will look to burn aggressive all time. All modern stoves burn at a faster rate than older ones, its due to new regs / rules. Mine burns on the “high” side even when shut fully down. I have contemplated taking the bar out and welding some plates over the vent holes to throttle air flow down... just haven’t got round to it yet. Will try upload a short vid of my fire running tonight in full shut down mode. But like i say it appears to be the norm with modern stoves.
  19. Where bouts you at Mr Bill Pierce?
  20. Bloody shame indeed! [emoji30][emoji39]
  21. They full up on the wards now then? They having to put you out in the communal gardens [emoji6]
  22. Slight frost here, couple of squirts of the old de-icer was enough. I absolutely love frost and cold weather, snow etc, think its ace [emoji108] i wind everyone up at work, sat with heater on like a set of old jesses, (i keep turning it off [emoji51]) If they moved about a bit more and did some graft then they’d keep warm! Hate and detest it when its freezing cold and raining though, thats just an arse!!!
  23. Not restricted to one vehicle on a operators licence no, you will just declare what vehicles are applicable according to operators licence rules. Visit the .gov site it’ll explain all.
